Hello Guys
Here we are again. I remember we spent great part of Dec and Jan talking about these cards. Ilya.... I am afraid you are right, no matter how nice is Andrew about explaining the advantages of the Quadro so you don't feel like me, hi hi hi hi. Vu (Superkannes) was pounding on the three of us not to buy the Quadro 4000, we both did.... Hi hi hi Andrew and Vu were correct....!
I am on one of my extended business trip. I have on this end an I-7 985 with the 4870 X2. There is no difference between this 250.00 card and the 780.00 card. In fact I think this card is slightly faster. Even the regular 4870 is about the same as the Quadro. I am a heavy user of Soldiworks, other than the Realview there is not much difference. With SW and the Realview there is a difference. However on my laptop I have a Quadro 1600 and it is basically the same as the Quadro 4000. Yes, we were taken.... Hi hi hi hi Me twice..... on the Quadro FX5800 and now the Quadro 4000. I while ago I was at the store and they have the new gamer card, I think it is the 6970 or 6950 they seem to be OK. If buy another card I will definitely buy a gamer card.
Ilya.... you are not alone....! I was taken too...... hi hi hi The card works OK, just like the gamer card at almost 2.5 the amount of money. Just keep on going like I did and don't think too much about it. The card is OK.
Regards to the 3 of you
